Many photos brought back wonderful memories and I now want to return to see the locations we missed. Savoring this book page by page was a treat. Whether you've been to Paris or not, Spectacular Paris is a visual delight. A beautiful book for a beautiful city.

Purchased 4 of these as gifts for a Paris-themed event. Without ever having been to Paris, this book makes you feel like you are really 'seeing' all of the beautiful sights...

I received this as a gift from my best friend, and was absolutely thrilled. The photography is top notch, and the cultural notes and history combine to make it a fantastic experience. I attended university in Paris, and miss it so much ... you truly feel like you are armchair traveling with this gorgeous book.

I have a lot of picture books as I am a keen photographer. This book compares well to most picture books. Overall, the quality of the photos is good and some are very sharp and a few are exceptional. If you like Paris like I do, it's a decent addition to your library. We went just after Christmas and encountered mix weather with some beautiful days, some grey and one really grotty - the snow was quite nice and added its own atmosphere. In this book, it's nice to see some of the sites at their best.

An oversized book of gorgeous photographs of Paris. This will be a true reminder of my six trips to Paris. Best I have seen. Barnes & Noble said they could not order the book for me as it was "out of print" but I got it from good old Amazon. Thanks Amazon!
